LIVEWELL SYSTEM
The 330 TE has two 40 gallon livewells standard. Each is equipped with a dual purpose 1100 GPH
livewell pump. The pumps are located in the aft bilge compartment and can be reached through the inspec-
tion port in either motorwell. The wiring is secured to the pump using a tie-strap, and must be disconnected
prior to removing the pump.
The livewell pumps draw water through the strainers mounted on the inboard side of the port and star-
board sponson. A seacock is installed between the pickup and the pump to allow you to seal the system
between use, or in the event of a plumbing failure.
To operate either livewell, first verify that the respective seacock and livewell inlet located inside the
box is open. Install the plug provided into the drain located at the bottom of the livewel. When you have
completed these steps, engage the livewell pump using the rocker switch located on the dash panel. The
livewell light is also controlled by this switch. Water will fill the tank until it is level with the overflow
drain on the outboard wall, which evacuates water through the hullside. To clear bait residue from the tank
during operation, quickly remove then replace the plug at the bottom of the box.. When you have finished
using the livewell, remove the plug to allow the water to drain overboard. Drain plugs are provided with
your boat, so that you can convert one or both livewells into a cooler when not in use.
RAW WATER SYSTEM
The raw water pump is located in the aft rigging compartment on the port side, and can be accessed
through the hatch located on the vertical wall beneath the livewell. The pump and wiring are mounted on
the rigging wall at the back of the compartment. The raw water pump is connected to the dual purpose
livewell pump which brings in water through a strainer located on the inboard side of the port sponson. The
livewell/raw water seacock must be open for the system to work, however, the livewell pump does not
have to be “ON”. Similar to the freshwater pump, the raw water system in controlled by a pressure switch
set at 45 psi. The pump will cycle on and off as needed to maintain this pressure. Most owners leave the
pump “on” throughout the day, and use the system when necessary. On the 330, the raw water pump feeds
the pull out faucet on the starboard side of the bait prep station and the washdown connection on the star-
board vertical wall of the leaning post. To use the washdown, install a hose to the inlet fitting provided with
your boat. Insert the fitting into the quick connect, by pushing inward and rotating clockwise to lock the
fitting in place. Reverse the procedure to remoce the fitting and store the hose assembly in the console
footrest. To view the layout of the raw water system see the drawing on page

NOTICE
While underway, leaving your livewell seacock open could result in inadvertently filling your
livewell. To prevent this, close the seacock or livewell inlet when the pump is not in operation.
NOTICE
Operating the engines in reverse can cause ventilation near the livewell intake, causing the pump
to airlock. To prevent this, turn the pumps “OFF” prior to any continuous or high speed reverse
operation. If your pump becomes air locked, turning the pump “OFF” for 15 to 30 seconds will
correct the problem.
